the release of magic sac software which comes with the translator one
shipped this month is version 5.5. it includes a number of gemdos
utilities, including MOVER.PRG, which moves files between gemdos format
floppies and either mac format or magic format, and vice-versa. since
this is a gemdos application, you don't need a magic sac cartridge
to do the transfer (though of course you do need a translator one).
the documentation makes it clear that the usefulness of a mac file in
the gemdos environment may be pretty limited, but i suppose you already
knew that.
allow me to offer my assistance (warning, rampant capitalism follows).
if you are interested i would be happy to act as a service bureau for
you. mail me your mac floppies and a corresponding number of blanks,
and i will perform the xfer for $1 per floppy, plus return postage
(cheap at twice the price). seriously, if i can help you out, give
me a call.
